Nothing Doing at Whole Foods Site
At the end of last year there was word that Whole Foods was going to start cleanup under the state’s Brownfield program at its 3rd Street site “on or about January 11, 2010.” Far as we can tell, though, nothing has happened at the property over the past three weeks. Not much of a shock…

Not much of a shock since this site has sat untouched for so long at this point. GMAP
A friend had parked at the garage on 4th ave. and was told it was closing (its still open!). I thought the finacing for the condo was slowing things down but Benson found the real answer! I still wish it would become a whole foods. The warehouse often doesn’t shovel after the snow and it becomes an ice rink walking to the train.
Guys;
Here are the details:

Denton and FSRG;
I believe the site is owned by a partnership of Fatato, Katan and Boymelgreen. This partnership is what caused the litigation to begin with. As I understand it, Bergen Tile had a long-term lease on the space with Fatato, who originally owned the building completely. Bergen had a right of first refusal in the lease, and the question was whether or not Fatato’s converting the ownership to a LLC violated the terms of that agreement.
I also believe the case was resolved, in Fatato’s favor. If you google Fatato, you will see that this case and resolution is shown in several law journals, as it apparently set a precedent in this type of situation.
“lol doubt it”
*rob*, I went through this with you the other night. Her dry food is Purina Dog Chow. Her wet food is Whole Foods 365 store brand – $0.99 / can. When I last bought her Alpo wet food, it was $1.19 / can. So, what can I say, but you’re wrong!!!
Plus which I told you I started feeding her the Whole Foods organic during the pet food recall in 2007, and she wouldn’t go back to Alpo.
dneton – yeah but I heard it was in litigation and besides do you really think they are going to get financing to build another condo on 4th right now?
Who needs Whole Foods when we’ve got Fairway!
“ebrklyn – where did you hear that the warehouse on 4th (btwn 1st and 2nd) is slated to be torn down – I have never heard anything like that?”
Katan owns it in whole or part.

365 brand, which is actually cheaper than Alpo
lol doubt it. i get the TWENTY pound bag of Alpo dry for 10 bux at associated. (i dont buy this all the time tho.. sometimes i buy him good petfood from the petstore that costs more)
*rob*
although I wish they would tear it down and make it a Rite-Aid or Duane Reade
